ArmInfo. Starting April 1, pension and benefit payments in Armenia will be made exclusively by bank transfer, as announced by Arsen Torosyan,  RA Minister of Labor and Social Affairs, on his Facebook page.

Minister Torosyan noted that bank cards have already been delivered  to the majority of citizens, including those with mobility  challenges. However, the minister noted that there remains a group of  citizens  who haven't  yet been reached. He stated  that citizens who  have not yet received their bank cards can call the social service  center at 114 or send their information to [email protected],  indicating their preferred method of communication. 

Torosyan assured  that the delivery process for the remaining cards  is ongoing and will be completed shortly. He also announced that the  disbursement of payments for the month of April has already started.
